Is burning or desecrating the American flag a right protected by the First Amendment? Or should a new constitutional amendment outlaw both acts? The issue of desecrating the flag goes back in the courts almost 100 years. Finally in 1989, the Supreme Court decided in Texas v.

I do not think that burning the American flag is really effective as it only makes others mad. I think that people should protest if they are upset about something or believe something is unfair. I do not think that people should protest violently/aggressively, though. A lot of people protest peacefully, but some do protest violently- which only puts a harsh look on the whole situation.

I understand that there is a lot wrong with this country and people have a right to be upset with our government and how the country is right now. I feel that the flag symbolizes much more than just our country. I feel like it stands for every man and woman fighting for this country in the military. The flag symbolizes the military people that have died for us. I feel like buring the flag is complete disrespect to those that have died for our country and their families. There are so many ways to protest your beliefs about the country, there is no need to burn the flag that I feel represents the honor of those that have died for our country.

Statistics like these are not exactly shocking to people these days, especially with all of the coverage that the mainstream media gives to them when they occur. Paraphrase Those who are pro gun control are rather diverse and feel just as strong about gun regulations as those opposing them. This group consist of people that feel anywhere from no guns being allowed, to only certain guns being allowed. Gun control statistics are vast in favor of gun control. For example, school shootings in the past twenty years. Although, these statistics are losing effect on the crowd as they are being over exposed on the media. .
